Trends in shaken baby syndrome diagnosis codes among young children hospitalized for abuse.

Objective: To investigate national trends of SBS diagnosis codes and how trends varied among patient and hospital characteristics.

Methods: We examined possible SBS, confirmed SBS, and non-SBS abuse diagnosis codes among children age three and younger who were hospitalized for abuse between 1998 and 2014 using a secondary analysis of the National Inpatient Sample, the largest US all-payer inpatient care database (N = 66,854). A baseline category logit model was used based on a quasi-likelihood approach (QIC) with an independent working correlation structure.
